January 2021
At the turn of new year, IULN held a Mental Wellness Zoom Webinar as part of our on-going mental health campaign to equip LGBTQ+ individuals with skills and resources to cope and heal on their mental health journeys.
The discussion between industry professionals and community leaders covered how persons in the LGBTQ+ community can introduce different forms of support for individuals who are coping with mental health issues and unhealthy coping mechanisms.
Our panelists included: Aleesha Khan, Heart Knocks Counselling, The Greenhouse SG, TransBefrienders & Penawar.
Effective Allyship Workshop 2020
July 2020
In lieu of Pride Month 2020, Inter-University LGBT Network launched 2 online sessions of the Effective Allyship Workshops that were open to public. Participants joined in robust discussions, were introduced to primers on LGBTQ+ issues and terms, in order to better understand their role as an ally to the LGBTQ+ community.
Intersectionality and Privilege Workshop
February 2020
In light of the rise in discussions surrounding race, privilege and allyship, Inter-University LGBT Network partnered with local brown activists to hold a closed workshop on intersectionality and privilege. The workshop highlighted the experiences of what it means to be brown and queer, and served as a safe space for discussions on race and queerness. We hoped that the workshop would equip participants with knowledge on how to recognise their privilege, and to be better allies. We also took this opportunity to learn about how the network can be more accessible, and better provide for the brown queer folks in our community.
The Magical Market
January 2020
We started 2020 by giving back! Inter-University LGBT Network collaborated with The T project SG to bring you The Magical Market: a charity art bazaar! All profits made went to supporting The T Project’s #LiveYourFairytale fundraiser. Hosted by Miss Chinatown, the market featured a whole range of local artists and musicians. Together, we managed to raise a total of $4079.67 due to the generous contributions and donations from the community.

Self Qare Day
December 2019
Inter-University LGBT Network ended the year with a Self Care event hosted at The Moon. Self Qare Day saw a full day of activities centred around self and community care. Participants learnt healthy coping methods, unwinded with zine jamming, broke a sweat with queer partnered dance, joined our panel discussion on mental health in the LGBTQ+ community, and much more! Open to all, this event couldn’t have been possible without our friends at Strictly Guys Dancing, Lifeline SG, The Greenhouse SG, Relational Counselling Studio, Free Community Church, The T Project, Your Head Lah! Magazine, Now Your Mind, Raphael Revindran and Norah Lea.
